在雙方談判的過(guò)程中，一定要注意傾聽(tīng)對(duì)方的發(fā)言，如果對(duì)對(duì)方的觀點(diǎn)表示了解，可以說(shuō)： I see what you mean.（我明白您的意思。）
如果表示贊成，可以說(shuō)：That's a good idea.（是個(gè)好主意。）
或者說(shuō)：I agree with you.（我贊成。）
如果是有條件地接受，可以用on the condition that這個(gè)句型，例如：
We accept your proposal, on the condition that you order 20,000 units.
?。ㄈ绻?萬(wàn)臺(tái)，我們會(huì)接受您的建議。）
在與外商，尤其是歐美國(guó)家的商人談判時(shí)，如果有不同意見(jiàn)，最好坦白地提出來(lái)而不要拐彎抹角，比如，表示無(wú)法贊同對(duì)方的意見(jiàn)時(shí)，可以說(shuō)：
I don't think that's a good idea.
?。ㄎ也徽J(rèn)為那是個(gè)好主意。）
或者 Frankly, we can't agree with your proposal.（坦白地講，我無(wú)法同意您的提案。）
如果是拒絕，可以說(shuō)：We're not prepared to accept your proposal at this time.
?。ㄎ覀冞@一次不準(zhǔn)備接受你們的建議。） 有時(shí)，還要講明拒絕的理由，如
To be quite honest, we don't believe this product will sell very well in China.
（說(shuō)老實(shí)話，我們不相信這種產(chǎn)品在中國(guó)會(huì)賣得好。）
談判期間，由於言語(yǔ)溝通問(wèn)題，出現(xiàn)誤解也是在所難免的：可能是對(duì)方誤解了你，也可能是你誤解了對(duì)方。在這兩種情況出現(xiàn)後，你可以說(shuō)：
No, I'm afraid you misunderstood me. What I was trying to say was...
?。ú?，恐怕你誤解了。我想說(shuō)的是……）
或者說(shuō)：Oh, I'm sorry, I misunderstood you. Then I go along with you.
?。ㄅ?，對(duì)不起，我誤解你了。那樣的話，我同意你的觀點(diǎn)。）
總之不管你說(shuō)什么，你最終的目的就是要促成一筆生意。即使不成，也要以善意對(duì)待對(duì)方，也許你以后還有機(jī)會(huì)，生意不成人情在，你說(shuō)對(duì)嗎？
